This amazing caramel apple snackle crackle recipe is like candy, cake and a cookie all rolled into one. You’re going to LOVE it – and your kids are too!
And – because there’s no oven involved – it’s a great way to get your kids involved in the kitchen!
In large mixer bowl, mix butter, applesauce, oats, crushed cereal, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla.

Stir in 1 cup butterscotch chips.
Spread batter into 8-inch square microwave-safe baking dish. Cover with wax paper.

Rotate dish 1/4 turn.
Cook on high power for 4 – 6 minutes longer or until top of cake appears dry and bottom is an even color.

Let cool directly on counter top. Cut into serving pieces.

Is apple cinnamon oat cereal found on the dry cereal isle? I’ve never seen any. Can you say what brand it is?

Yes – sorry – we usually use the Cheerios Apple, Cinnamon cereal. Does that help?
